Method Details

waitUntilMaybeAvailable(self, owner)

Fire when the lock *might* be available. The caller will need to check with isAvailable() when the deferred fires. This loose form is used to avoid deadlocks. If we were interested in a stronger form, this would be named 'waitUntilAvailable', and the deferred would fire after the lock had been claimed.
